IMPROVEMENT IN COOKlNG-STOVES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 415,627, dated December27, 1864.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, DANIEL E. PARIS, of the city of Troy, in the countyof Bensselaer and State of New York, have invented a new and usefulimprovement in (looking-Stoves having Elevated Ovens, ofwhichthefollowing is a full and exact description, reference being had to theannexed drawings, in which Figure 1 isa part side elevation and partsection at or about the line 2 z in Fig.2, and Fig. 2 a front elevationof a section at or about the line y y in Fig. 1, of an elevated-ovencooking-stove embodying my invention.

Like parts are marked by like letters in all the figures, and thecourses of the gases of combustion and of the atmospheric air throughthe stove are indicated by the arrows in the drawings.

My invention consistsin makingan elevatedoven cooking-stove withperforations A A through the end plates, B B, of an air-chamber, 0,between the bottom D of the oven, and a fire-flue, F, under the oven, incombination with an aperture or apertures, G, through the oven bottom,and an air-passage or air-passages, H, from the oven E into a fire'flue,l, extended from the fire-flue F along or around the sides J J and top Kof the oven in such manner that with a fire in the stove cold air willenter from the apartment in which the stove is used through theperforations A A in the end plates, B B, into the ends of theair-chamber c, and will thence circulate through the chamber a and passout of that chamber by the aperture or apertures G up into the oven Eand circulate through the latter, and finally pass out of the oventhrough the opening or openings H into the fire-flue I, so as to therebyprevent the overheating oi the bottom of the ovenby the fire-flue F, anddistribute throughout the interior of the oven the surplus heat taken bythe circulating air from the chamber 0, and also ventilate the oven.

By the aforesaid combination of the perforations A A in the end plates,B B, with the chamber 0, aperture or apertures G, oven E, aperture orapertures H, and fire-fines F I all the aforesaid advantageous resultsare secured at a considerably less cost than would be the case if thecold air were admitted into the chamber 0 through a pipe or itsequivalent leading from the under side of the bottom plate,L of the fireflue F, up through that plate and fire-flue and through the bottom plateM of the chamber 0 for the holes A A can be cast in the plates B B inmaking the latter and with no extra expense therefor;

-but the employment of a pipe or its equivalent to conduct the air fromthe under side of the stove up through the fire-flue E into the chamberG would require considerable additional expense.

What I claim as new and of my invention, and desire to secure by LettersPatent, is-

An elevated-oven cookingstove having per forations A in the end plates,B, of an airchamber, 0, arranged between the bottom of the oven,and afire-flue, F, under it, in combination with an aperture or apertures, G,in the bottom of the oven, and an air-passage or air-passages, H, fromthe oven into a fire-flue, I, along or around the oven, substantially asherein described.
